Consider the experiment of tossing a fair coin 3 times. For each coin, the possible outcomes are heads or tails.(a) List the equally likely events of the sample space for the three tosses.(b) What is the probability that all three coins come up heads? Notice that the complement of the event "3 heads" is "at least one tail." Use this information to compute the probability that there will be at least one tail.

a)

H - H - H

H - H - T

H - T - H

H - T - T

T - H - H

T - H - T

T - T - H

T - T - T

b)

0.125 = 12.5% probability that all three coins come up heads.

0.875 = 87.5% probability that there will be at least one tail.

Step-by-step explanation:

A probability is the number of desired outcomes divided by the number of total outcomes.

Question a:

Considering H for heads, T for tails:

H - H - H

H - H - T

H - T - H

H - T - T

T - H - H

T - H - T

T - T - H

T - T - T

(b) What is the probability that all three coins come up heads?

One outcome(H - H - H) out of 8, so:

0.125 = 12.5% probability that all three coins come up heads.

Notice that the complement of the event "3 heads" is "at least one tail." Use this information to compute the probability that there will be at least one tail.

Sum of these probabilities is 100%, so:

1 - 0.125 = 0.875

0.875 = 87.5% probability that there will be at least one tail.

15

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the following expression and we are to solve it and find the product:

-13 × (-5)

solving the given expression in the standard order of solving a mathematical expression, beginning with the opening of brackets and then multiplying the terms and changing their signs.

-3 × -5 = 15 (answer is positive because when negative is multiplied with negative, it gives a positive answer)
